Among the most difficult processes in the repair of any house is the restoration of decorative elements of the building. For example, decorative plaster. In this case, the process is called restoration as in any repair of the decor, first of all, it is supposed to restore it.
It is worth noting that the main features of the restoration of decorative plaster are due to its difference from the usual plaster. In particular, ordinary plaster is a mixture of sand with cement. And this same about its composition is completely different. It is a mixture of a much larger number of special elements similar to the paste, which allow it to acquire not only decorative properties, but also strength when hardening. Thanks to this, decorative elements made with its help can be quite durable. So, the repair process begins with the removal of all sections of decorative plaster that exfoliated. The purified places are thoroughly treated with a primer of deep penetration and allow it to dry. The most difficult stage is not even applying a new layer of decorative plaster, but giving it the texture of an already existing decor. New areas should not stand out and the entire wall should look like a single whole. And all the procedures must be performed without a break due to the fact that such a plaster for grasping is necessary for a maximum of 15 minutes. The correct texture can be achieved using spatulas (for relief) and dishes (for roughness). After the start of decorative plaster drying, when mativity becomes noticeable, you need to get rid of various embossed protrusions that are knocked out of a single drawing. For this, a spatula moistened in water is used.
